Pond [p]

The pond is a historical unit of force, equivalent to the force exerted by gravity on a mass of one gram.

It is part of the gram-force system and was widely used before the adoption of the newton in the SI system.
Mathematically:

1 \text{ pond} = 1 \text{ gram} \times 9.80665 \text{ m/s}^2 = 0.00980665 \text{ newtons}

In other words, 1 pond is approximately 0.00981 newtons.
The pond is rarely used today, having been replaced by the newton, but it may still appear in older scientific literature or certain niche applications.
It is similar in concept to the gram-force (gf).

Kilopond [kp]

The kilopond (also called kilogram-force, kgf) is a unit of force based on the metric system.

It represents the force exerted by gravity on a mass of one kilogram under standard Earth gravity.
Mathematically:

1 \text{ kp} = 1 \text{ kg} \times 9.80665 \text{ m/s}^2 = 9.80665 \text{ newtons}

It is commonly used in engineering and industries, especially before the widespread adoption of the newton (SI unit).
The kilopond is equivalent to the kilogram-force (kgf) and is often used interchangeably.
Despite being non-SI, it remains popular in some regions for practical measurements of force.
